What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Internal Revenue Service proposed a rule that would deny access to several refundable federal tax credits, such as the Earned Income Tax Credit and Child Tax Credit, for lawful immigrants and their U.S. citizen children. The Protecting Immigrant Families coalition, along with the American Academy of Pediatrics, submitted a comment urging the IRS to scrap the plan.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The proposed rule directly impacts millions of immigrant families and U.S. citizen children who rely on these tax credits. The action is part of a larger situation where policies from Donald Trump's administration conflict with professional public health recommendations.

Trump's administration policies oppose the public health recommendations issued by the American Academy of Pediatrics, and policy changes from the Department of Health & Human Services are causing the American Academy of Pediatrics to express uncertainty about its protocols.
